Modules C++ page review
Hi, you reviewed my page Draft:Modules (C++) and rejected it on the grounds that there were insufficient sources, and I responded to your message on my talk page but did not get a response, so I am asking here. I do not see how it is the case that there are insufficient sources - nearly every paragraph contains a reference and those that do not do not really need one. The previous reviewer commented that there were insufficient sources, however my most recent edit explicitly was to add more references, and I think that there are plenty. Could you please give a detailed explanation on what is missing? 24.50.56.74 (talk) 20:46, 30 June 2025 (UTC)
Hey IP, sorry for the delay. I had seen your earlier message but could not reply due to IRL duties. Regarding the draft, although you seem to have added a couple more sources (full edits decline to decline), they are not reliable. Vast portions are only sourced by forums, docs and other such sources which are not only unreliable, but also not do any help to the Wikipedia:Notability. Some examples are cppreference.com, docs.oracle.com, and gitlab.kitware.com. The draft also reads like a WP:NOTHOWTO violation at this stage, which is of course not acceptable (apologies for not including this in my comments) ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>12:24, 1 July 2025 (UTC)
I'm not sure what's wrong with citing cppreference.com as several other Wikipedia pages cite or at least reference it too, on the topic of C++. Same with docs.oracle.com, as I am citing official Oracle documentation (only for topics related to Java). I only cite gitlab.kitware.com because I am directly citing from the developers of CMake that header units are not yet implemented. Also, I do not see how the page is a WP:NOTHOWTO violation, as I am not writing the page to be a tutorial on how to use modules, it is meant to be an informative page describing what they are and how they function (it was essentially split off from Precompiled headers). Not to mention, several other Wikipedia pages on the topic of C++ are written in the same style - they contain descriptive examples of code to illustrate the topic in question, but that doesn't make it a how-to page. 24.50.56.74 (talk) 14:51, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
Maybe those sources are suitable for a small documentation for a technical thing, but they do no good in proving Wikipedia:Notability of the subject. See the 2 examples for nothowto violations:
To link the module partition [...]
[...] thus, to import code belonging to [...], one simply has to write import A;
Secondly, WP:OTHERCONTENT and WP:WHATABOUTX are some useful venues for you. Just because some other articles cite the sources, or are written in a certain way, doesn't mean you can do the same here.
At this stage, the content is howto and essay-like, with not at all enough sources to pass Wikipedia:Notability, and the content is not sources according to policies. I would ask you to improve the content, or if you feel it is good enough, feel free to resubmit. I am not willing to revert my decline at this stage. Thank you. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>11:52, 3 July 2025 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!

I have to be honest that I was overwhelmed when I saw the AfC backlog just now! Your work at articles for creation is incredible. Thank you so much for coordinating and being part of the June Backlog Drive eliminators. I miss reviewing drafts, and I hope I am able to get back more actively again. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:00, 1 July 2025 (UTC)
Thank you so much for the this! :) Although you could not do much this drive, I have seen your prior contributions, and still am amazed at the scale of your work, thanks for that as well! ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>12:13, 1 July 2025 (UTC)
Hi Bunnypranav. Could you offer any specifics that caused this article to be rejected? I've revised it a few times, and I thought this version would satisfy the previous similar feedback I'd received about it. I'm unsure how to improve it now. Thank you!
I don't understand your comment about the Features section. There is one sentence that mentions the document categories. There is a second sentence that mentions some of Trustworthy's tools. What exactly make you decide it wasn't neutral?
Can you explain what led you to conclude the sources weren't independent? (Because they are.)
Would these wording revisions help with the Features section?
Trustworthy is used to store encrypted personal information, including identification documents, tax records, insurance policies, mortgages, and financial data. Its documented capabilities include issuing automated reminders for document expirations, enabling mobile uploads through an in-app scanner, and allowing users to configure access controls for family members and advisors. TollVic (talk) 01:38, 3 July 2025 (UTC)
Looks better, but the Its documented capabilities include can be made a bit more non-promotional. Provided each one of them is reliably sourced by independent reliable sources where the article/page is not sponsored by, related to, or written by the company. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>11:27, 3 July 2025 (UTC)
Something like this? Each part would be properly sourced.
Trustworthy is used to store encrypted personal information, including identification documents, tax records, insurance policies, mortgages, and financial data. Tools: automated reminders for document expirations, mobile uploads through an in-app scanner, and custom access controls. TollVic (talk) 15:15, 3 July 2025 (UTC)
Second line, Tools: is not grammatically correct in a paragraph of prose. I'd say something very simple like It has automated reminders, xxx and xxx. That's it. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>11:11, 4 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your work on the drive, and thank you so much for your whopping 155 re-reviews!! You helped keep this drive flowing and this wouldn't have been possible without you, so thank you! Sophisticatedevening🍷(talk)15:16, 8 July 2025 (UTC)
Hello! I just created my account an hour ago. I want to contribute to Wikipedia by making edits and creating aricles about films from my country the Philippines. I always use this website for searching of articles about movies to know more about the specific film but sometimes it is not available on Wikipedia but present to other sites, it would make easier and accessible for future viewers if I make the unavailable contents here as Wikipedia is more cohesive and coherent sites than others.
My question is, is it true that I can only make article if my account is 4 day old, Make atleast 10 minimum edits, and do you have tips for me as a new here.
@Vraeneix Welcome! If you're account is not yet 4 days and 10 edits old, then you cannot directly create articles in the mainspace (simply said, the part of the wiki most public will see). You can, however, still create them in draftspace, which is a place for incubation of newer articles.
I would advice you to have a look through Help:Your first article and the further links given in it. That is a really good place for you to start and learn about the policies with advice on writing articles. Hope this helps, and happy editing! :) ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>14:10, 11 July 2025 (UTC)
Hey Bunnypranav! Thanks for helping out at AfC :). Totally optional thing during the review process, many AfCers don't always take this step, but feel free to tag drafts like Draft:Aureus ERP for G11 if the draft content needs absolute WP:TNT to pass. Whole thing was unreferenced, with sections like "why should you choose Aureus" and their bulleted list of reasons followed. The only two links on the page were for 1: the Github, and 2: the framework it was built on. Your decline of the draft was totally correct, but I would've gone a step further and CSD'd it after declining it. (They ended up resubmitting the same thing with more promo content which is why I saw it end up back in the AfC queue.) Thanks for your good work! Utopes(talk / cont)05:36, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
The see also section for the film, Jeepers Creepers: Reborn is a bit editorialized in so far as the see also content makes no back reference to jeepers creepers reborn. This movie may be quite bad. This movie may not be quite that bad. Referencing a see also section of worst movies that doesn’t list this movie as a bad movie is clutter without citation that does not contribute clarity to an article about this movie.
For my own purposes, I’ve checked for Metacritic scores and IMDB scores for worst movies of 2020s and unfortunately, this movie hasn’t been widely reviewed enough by critics to make those lists. Likewise, it only has 15 critic reviews on rotten tomatoes so it doesn’t yet qualify for the list of zero score films on rotten tomatoes.
I believe this section should be stricken, and I stand by that assertion. Do you have an argument to keep it in place? Madsmith (talk) 14:46, 19 July 2025 (UTC)
I still think the mention is fine, and suitable to link to. Having a see also link does not mean the move is so bad, nor do I think it is editorializing. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>14:21, 20 July 2025 (UTC)
Hello! I have a question which pertains more to etiquette than editing exactly - is it appropriate to ping a user to ask for information on an edit they made? For context, I'm adding a section to an article's talk page, to seek clarification on a citation which doesn't actually seem to provide evidence for the claim, and I worried that it might be a faux-pas to ping the person who made the edit in question. Thanks for your guidance! --Tinybabyfishy (talk) 11:26, 23 July 2025 (UTC)
Hello Bunnypranav! I have a question about how to move an article from my sandbox to the main Wikipedia. I am not part of the Hurston Wright Foundation nor the Zora Awards (the article I created) but I am a volunteer that works in nonprofit publishing and want to help raise the awareness of the rebranding of the Zora Awards for all authors of color. I am new to Wikipedia editing and page creation, any advice or direction you can give me would be so helpful. The fully written Zora Award entry for Wikipedia (with citations and links) is in my sandbox. Thanks so much for your help and guidance! --Tk42juan (talk) 20:36, 31 July 2025 (UTC)
Hey @Tk42juan, apologies for the delayed response. I have done a quick skim of your article User:Tk42juan/sandbox, and have a couple points. Firstly, the language does not seem Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, and sounds promotional in some places. Also, did you use ChatGPT or some other AI for writing some parts of the article? If yes, that is highly discouraged in Wikipedia, have a look at Wikipedia:Large language models for some reasons on why.
Due to my real life reasons, I unfortunately do not have the time to go through it in detail. Once you are done fixing the problems I said above, feel free to add {{submit}} at the top of the draft, and one of the Wikipedia:Articles for creation members will review your draft and give you some feedback on improving it. In the meantime, I say you have a look through Help:Your first article for some beginner advice. Hope this helps! ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>10:15, 3 August 2025 (UTC)
Signature contrast
Hi bunnypranav. I like your signature, but.. it doesn't meet the requirements for signature appearances. Your signature seems to have too little contrast, especially for the small font size. You can use a tool to check the contrast to determine if your signature meets the minimum contrast ratio of 4.5 (the draft new web accessibility guidelines are even more strict for small-font text). —Femke 🐦 (talk) 08:35, 2 August 2025 (UTC)
Thanks for the notice Femke, and apologies for not realizing that the colours are not appropriate until now. I'll change it in a couple hours once I'm on my PC. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>04:33, 3 August 2025 (UTC)
Hello, Bunnypranav. Per your request, your account has been granted "checkuser-temporary-account". You are now able to reveal the IP addresses of individuals using temporary accounts that are not visible to the general public. This is very sensitive information that is only to be used to aid in anti-abuse workflows. Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Temporary account IP viewer for more information on this user right. It is important to remember:
Access should not be used for political control, to apply pressure on editors, or as a threat against another editor in a content dispute. There must be a valid reason to investigate a temporary user. Note that using multiple temporary accounts is not forbidden, so long as they are not used in violation of policies (for example, block or ban evasion).
It is also important to note that the following actions are logged for others to see:
When a user accepts the preference that enables or disables IP reveal for their account.
Revealing an IP address of a temporary account.
Listing the temporary accounts that are associated with an IP address or CIDR range.
Remember, even if a user is violating policy, avoid revealing personal information if possible. Use temporary account usernames rather than disclosing IP addresses directly, or give information such as same network/not same network or similar. If you do not want the user right anymore then please ask me or another administrator and it will be removed for you. Happy editing! Sohom (talk) 04:34, 3 August 2025 (UTC)
I will continue to edit it in the next few weeks, but I do have some specific questions for you about citations.
1. How do I indicate that a book had editors and not authors when I enter it manually?
2. What is the difference between a publication date and a retrieved date?
Hey @LegacyWitness, and thank you for your contributions! Answering your questions, to include editors in the citations, you'll have to use the template {{cite book}}, which has fields for upto 9 editors. Secondly, the publication date is the date when the book/article/source was published to the world, in any website/offline. The retrieved date is the date the source retrieved and added in the article, used for logging when/if the website goes down or changes the content. Mostly used when Wayback Machine archives the sources using bots/other volunteers. It is generally automatically added in most cases. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>13:36, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
THANK YOU! The distinction between retrieved date and publication date makes so much sense to me now. Thank you for giving me the context.
Hello Bunny Pranav, I'm Neerja Azad. How do I know when and how to edit a sentence which shows an opinion of the writer? --Neerja Azad (talk) 00:08, 26 August 2025 (UTC)
Hello! Nice to work with you. Could you please take a look at my AfC submission now that it's fulfilled all the remaining issues with notability mentioned in the previous declination? Thank you :)
For context, the previous evaluator determined there was 1 source that qualified for notability in the revision he/she looked at, and since then 2-3 additional eligible ones have been added to fit this standard (once I paid attention to the requirements more fully) Asf132 (talk) 22:39, 2 September 2025 (UTC)
Thank you for the update and notification, but unfortunately to IRL reasons, I am unable to review articles that much. Please wait for another reviewer who will get to it. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>12:34, 3 September 2025 (UTC)
Question from Avi The Banik (15:53, 4 September 2025)
Hello! I'm new to Wikipedia editing section and still finding out how things actually work. Any suggestions for first timers? Also, Since English isn't my native language, I can't write whole articles in English but I can edit here and there. I think I would have the most work in the translation section. But how can I find it? --Avi The Banik (talk) 15:53, 4 September 2025 (UTC)
Hello @Avi The Banik, and welcome to Wikipedia! A quickstart guide to Wikipedia editing can be found at Help:Introduction. First click with Get started for the basic guide, then hop back to the original page for more detailed guides. Since you wish to do translation, have a look at Help:Translation and then Wikipedia:Translation on how to do so. If you wish to edit in your native language, that also might have a wiki for that particular language. Search your language in m:Wikimedia projects to see if it has it's own Wikipedia, or any other Wikimedia Sister projects. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping>07:32, 5 September 2025 (UTC)
Hello. I urgently need help. My friend created a draft page for a Gorillaz song with no references. How can I help him find references for the song? --LooneyTuner1988 (talk) 16:37, 4 September 2025 (UTC)
